Capital markets never speculate on “what if a blockbuster hits” — they always look at the downside protection first.

Project A’s annualized return ranges from a minimum of 10% to a maximum that might be just double. Project B’s annualized return could be as low as -90%, but its ceiling might be hundreds of times higher.

Everyone does—it’s the same pattern. People gravitate toward certainty. Among all things, certainty is the most precious, and also the easiest to exploit for scams.
